I share your problem, working a part-time job and keeping up with my regular
practice is sometimes difficult(since I don't take private lessons) but I
have learned to budget my time so I still get the same amount of practice.
Usually I 2 days off a week, those days I practice at home, and the days I
do have to work I will practice during my study hall. Then usually I wind
up not practicing Sat. but Sunday afternoon I will make up that extra time
when I have nothing to do. With this system I have made up-I still get all
my practice time in and able to lead a normal "teenagers" life.
